Cannot create new grub config

So I followed the install guide, and my grub is working. The problem is, I want enable os-prober so I installed it and tried updating my grub config, but whenever I ran the command `sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg` it would give me the output `/etc/default/grub: line 1: o#: command not found`

Why is this? grub works fine

Because you screwed up the file when enabling os-prober. check it again, line 1 as it says.

Re: Cannot create new grub config

Fixed it! deepin put a comment in my grub file, which was causing the error. removing it fixed the error and it built successfully
